Except for the brochure for adults, we also prepared small pinwheel for kids as small gift of peace and friendship.
While Kids and adults in the Jeju Aerospace museum enjoyed playing war game, we distributed the brochure to create a chance for people to think of peace.
We held the banner written "War is not game!" inside the Jeju Aerospace museum.
Jeju Aerospace museum is the biggest one in Asia, and lots of the exhibition tends to be the promotion for War. We held the banner saying "War is not a game" in front of the museum.
No F-35....Stop the Purchase of F-35...Campaign at the Ministry of Defense in Seoul by SPARK, Peace organization.
in front of Jeju Gangjeong Naval Base, we had one-person protesting to stop the Korea government's purchase of F-35
[Oct. 7] in fronf of the destruction gate of Jeju Naval Base, people held the banner written "War is not game" and the hand-made picket in solidarity with Afghanistan friends during the Keep Space for Peace Week.
The terrible education: Kids in the Jeju Aerospace museum enjoyed playing war game.
In Jeju Aerospace museum, we distributed the brochure to adults telling the truth which the museum doesn't exhibit how people die under the attack of Unmanned aerial vehicle/drone.
People are reading the brochure telling the truth of drone, how many innocent people are killed by drone.
The international campaign “Keep Space for Peace Week” in year 2014 was held from Oct. 4 to 11. Gangjeong Peace activists also joined to the joint action with the world.
Oct. 4th, the first day of this year’s Keep Space for Peace Week, was also the 1st international joint action day against surveillance and killing drones. In recent years, numerous innocent children in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen etc. have been indiscrminately killed being the targets of drones, remote-controlled and directed by US and NATO.
This year, South Korea is to introduce Northrop-Grumman –producing Global Hawk, a drone called ‘the satellite of the ground.’ South Korea, which has already been estimated as one of top drone countries along with the United States and Israel has already involved into the market of such surveillance and killing drones.
It is not difficult to imagine that such surveillance and killing drones will be used with the completion of the Jeju naval base. We should watch Jeju neither to be an Island of victim nor an Island of assaulter, by stopping this base project as our 1st step.
On Oct 7th, during the Keep Space for Peace Week, we people in Gangjeong also stand in solidarity with Afghanistan friend remembering the invasion of US has been lasting since Oct 7th, 2001 until today.
On Oct 7th and 8th, while SPARK, an Peace Organization organized a protesting in front of the South Korea Ministry of National Defense in Seoul to stop the Korea government’s purchase of F-35, in front of Jeju Gangjeong Naval Base, we had one-person protesting for the same issue too.
And on Oct 12th, we planned the final action in Jeju Aerospace museum (JAM) where the war game is being taught as a fun hobby and the improvement of aviation and space for war is regarded as the development of human with no shame. We visited the museum with banner to express out that “war is not a game!” and to distribute the brochure to adults with the small pinwheel for kids telling the truth which the museum doesn’t exhibit how people die under the attack of Unmanned aerial vehicle/drone.
We people in Gangjeong, village of life and peace, Jeju, Island of World Peace are against the promotion of war game.
